Hopi Ear Candles

Hopi Ear Candles £30Includes head/face massage

Thermal Auricular Therapy (also known as Hopi Ear Candles) is a pleasant and non-invasive treatment of the ears, used to treat a variety of conditions. Conditions which may benefit are; headaches, migraines, sinusitis, glue ear, vertigo, tinnitis, excessive wax, rhinitis, earache, ear infections and colds. It is believed that the Ancient Greeks used ear candles, initially for cleansing, purifying and healing on a spiritual basis. The practice reached the modern world via the native American Hopi Indians of North Arizona ( Hopi means peaceful people). Ear candles were used traditionally by Shamen healers. The candles are still made today on the basis of the old traditional formula originating from the Hopi Indians.

The candles are made from the natural ingredients of beeswax, honey extracts, sage, St Johns Wort, chamomile, beta-carotene and organically grown flax. The candles work on a chimney principle, drawing any impurities to the surface where they can be gently removed. They equalise the pressure in the head and ears, making them suitable for most conditions. Secretion flow is gently stimulated and the vapour collects and removes impurities or deposits. Most of these are carried away through the candle "chimney", although some of them can be found in the condensed candle wax residue after removal from the ear. They can even continue to work their way up to the surface 24-48 hours after.

** Please note that if you have had a recent perforated eardrum, or have grommets or other implants in the ear then we cannot carry out the treatment **
